Lu Rang reassured him in a low voice, "Don't feel pressured. I'll cover for you. You can do whatever you want at the docks, even if you cause trouble."
Shang Wu smiled, but he wasn't as relaxed as he claimed.
Apart from Lu Rang's father, the Yu family had never previously appointed an outsider as the head of the Yu family.
She knew that Lu Zheng had also worked incredibly hard to prove his abilities back then, barely managing to support the entire Yu family.
Even so, over the years, many members of the Yu family have remained unconvinced of him.
In some ways, her situation is exactly the same as Lu Zheng's.
She was not the marriage partner personally chosen by the Yu family, and she did not have the approval of the Yu family.
The only way is to prove one's ability.
She cannot make mistakes, and she cannot think that because Lu Rang has chosen her unwaveringly and is there to protect her, she can do anything without restraint.
In short, I'm going to be quite busy from now on.
She will definitely become the rightful Mrs. Yu, as for her family...
She also believed that one day her mother would see that she and Lu Rang were doing well and that Lu Rang's illness had not affected her, and she would try to let go of her prejudice and take the initiative to make peace.
Of course, if her family refuses to back down, she won't go back.
As Shang Wu was lost in thought, she received a call from Tang Xueli.
She got up and walked to the side.
As soon as the call connected, Tang Xueli's shocked voice came through.
"Shang Wu, you're really being unfair! When did you start talking to the young master of the Yu family? You didn't even tell me! What do you mean by this?!"
Tang Xueli was extremely embarrassed.
The thought of how she had repeatedly told Shang Wu that she wanted to get close to the young master of the Yu family and seduce him into marriage made her cheeks burn.
Shang Wu smiled.
She said softly, "I'm sorry, I didn't tell you about this before because I wanted to protect his identity. Please don't be angry with me."
"I'm not angry, I just didn't expect that the lawyer who's always with you is the young master of the Yu family. I said a lot of... things before, you don't mind, do you? I was just talking nonsense, I didn't mean to seduce your boyfriend." Tang Xueli stammered, a little nervous.
Shang Wu immediately explained, "I won't be angry. I know you didn't mean it that way. Don't treat me like someone you can't offend. We're still friends who can talk about anything, just like before. It won't change just because I'm the girlfriend of the young master of the Yu family."
Tang Shirley smiled and relaxed.
"Of course, you are now the girlfriend of the young master of the Yu family. When you get married in the future, you will be the wife of the Yu family. Do you know how much that status slaps those people in the face?"
"Su Tingting and her gang have been openly and secretly mocking you for being unwanted, saying that you would covet the wealth of those rich second-generation heirs and take away their money and assets. And what was the result?"
"Ha, being able to be the girlfriend of the Yu family's young master means you don't care about these people's assets or companies at all! You've done what you said, finding someone in the entire Lin City who is more powerful and influential than these rich second-generation heirs. I'd like to see if Su Tingting still dares to swagger in front of you!"
Shang Wu curled her red lips: "I know you've been feeling aggrieved for me these past few days, and so have I. Don't worry, I'll take care of these people."
After hanging up the phone, she turned around and winked at Lu Rang.
"Can I go out and take care of some things this afternoon? I'll be right back."
Lu Rang looked at her with a half-smile.
"What do you need me to do?"
"She's probably just using her status as your girlfriend to cause some trouble. You don't mind, do you?" Shang Wu raised an eyebrow.
Lu Rang was a little disappointed: "Aren't you taking me with you? I wanted to go with you."
"No, you're seriously injured. You should rest at home and not run around. Focus on getting better these next few days."
Without saying a word, Shang Wu helped him into the room, firmly suppressing his desire to show off their affection.
In the afternoon, she drove her sports car out.
Tang Xueli had already gathered the group of people in the private room.
When she said she wanted to see Shang Wu, no one dared not come. No one dared to offend this person whom they once feared and looked down upon, but now had to treat with utmost respect and dared not make things difficult for.
When Shang Wu pushed open the door to the private room, she saw a group of rich young men sitting in a circle on the sofa.
Everyone was like a child in kindergarten, so well-behaved that even the gesture of folding their hands was the same.
Upon seeing Shang Wu, their expressions changed, and they immediately stood up awkwardly to greet her.
"Miss Shang."
"Miss Shang, you've arrived."
Shang Wu glanced around but didn't see Su Tingting. He tossed his car keys on the coffee table, closed the door to the private room, and went inside.
"Why isn't the important person here today?"
One of them whispered, "After Su Tingting found out you were the girlfriend of the young master of the Yu family, she was so scared that she bought a plane ticket and wanted to run away."
Shang Wu found it amusing, crossed her arms, and raised an eyebrow.
"So, she's already abroad?"
Tang Shirley was speechless. "That's no fun. She was the one who barked the loudest, like a dog. Now that she's gone, what's the point?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than there was a knock on the door of the private room.
Shang Wu turned around and saw two men in black leading a woman in.
Everyone was stunned when they saw that the person was Su Tingting.
One of the men in black spoke up.
"Young Master said this woman wanted to run away, so he specially sent her here to entertain you. She can do whatever she wants. He'll cover for her if anything happens here today."
After speaking, the man in black narrowed his eyes and swept his fierce gaze across everyone.
He deliberately threatened, "The young master also said that even if someone dies, it doesn't matter, he has plenty of ways to dispose of the body."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's legs went weak, and they almost knelt down before Shang Wu.
A chorus of pleas for mercy erupted from the private room.
"I'm so sorry, Miss Shang! I offended you and spoke ill of you behind your back repeatedly. I was wrong!"
"Please don't kill me! Spare me, I promise I won't do it again!"
Su Tingting's face turned ashen; she never dreamed that Shang Wu had somehow gotten involved with the young master of the Yu family.
She felt that her future was bleak and that Shang Wu was about to throw her into the sea to feed the fish. Her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground.
Shang Wu raised an eyebrow, looking down at her dejected appearance, and found it laughable.
"I haven't even made you kneel, yet you're already acting so self-willed."
Su Tingting quickly knelt down and grabbed Shang Wu's sleeve, shaking it.
"I'm sorry, Shang Wu. I shouldn't have offended you. I'll never do it again. Please let me go abroad. I promise I'll never come back. Please, please let me go."
Shang Wu's clothes were tugged out of shape by her.
She gave him a look, and the man in black pulled Su Tingting away.
Shang Wu turned around and sat down on the sofa.
"Su Tingting, you keep saying that no one wants me, and no matter how many times I warn you, you won't shut up. I think you've been single for too long and have too much free time. Is this matter easy to resolve?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Xueli's eyes lit up as she looked at her expectantly.
Su Tingting suddenly raised her head, a bad feeling creeping over her.
She asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want to do to me?"
